[@Beehappy76637]

I had a client that was very high up in a company called AVA ANDERSON non toxic they claimed to have all natural chemical free etc. it was invented by a 15 year old girl that was worried about bad things in our products so she supposedly opened a business you know she had no help from parents or anything. Eventually they were caught using harsh chemicals and blamed manufacturing company. The person I know got into the business early so. I Imagine she was making good money well with zero notice the company closed and was bought by another company but it appears they haven’t done much with it. You can still find videos about the company they highly marketed this 15 year old girl. Well the person I know built a brand new home double the size of her previous home and I’m guessing double the payment and in less than 6 months it closed. Sad might be a good one to look into.

It’s perfectly okay to want to be your own person outside of your children, INCLUDING working an outside job. It doesn’t make you a bad mother, and I’m so sick of the narrative that if you’re not a full time stay at home mom you’re a bad mom. If that works for you, great!

I was a better mom because I worked outside of the home. Not every mom was made to be a stay at home mom. Props to those who can do it, but it wouldn't have worked for me. Nor would I ever want to reach out to others trying to sell a dream life. Sounds miserable.

I’m the daughter of a mom who basically always worked, and would absolutely agree she was a better mom for working. She spent most of her career as a special education teacher and difficult as it could be she got a lot of eudaimonic satisfaction out of it and once I was old enough to understand what she did I was (and still am) so proud of her for it.

She didn't say she stopped cold turkey, it's possible it was a gradual thing for her. I personally think it is not a good thing to be dependent on prescriptions. HOWEVER, I understand it is necessary for some people. Claiming it was all because of here MLM might be a stretch though.

There are two big fundamental principles in Christianity, predestination, and free will. Multiple times in the Bible, we are told that God has chosen believers to be believers. There is, also, the concept of free will. God doesn't always stop us from making poor choices. He has given us the Holy Spirit to guide us, but we have to make our own decisions. When we mess up, and ask forgiveness, He forgives us, but He doesn't remove the consequences. Could a Christian choose to join an MLM, and God allow them to even be successful in it, because He has a purpose for it? Most definitely. God absolutely works through our poor decisions and adds to our testimony in many ways. Does that mean God endorses it or is happy about it? Definitely NOT.
